Hi everyone! Welcome back to my blog. Today’s post is all about the new Preview x Happy Skin Shut Up & Kiss Me Moisturizing Matte Lippies! It had been two weeks since I got them and I am probably one of the first few people who bought from Zalora before it got out of stock (but now available again!). Matte lipsticks are my favorites, and since this set is made by Happy Skin, I know that I will like them.
You might have seen a lot of reviews already but I hope that you’ll still enjoy this review. I’ve read mixed reviews about these lippies, and they seem not to suit every Filipina. I want to share how they look on me and share with you my thoughts.
Let’s begin!
The packaging is really too cute. The two lippies rest snugly inside the paper box. I love that I can recycle the box and put some little accessories inside. It is too bulky to keep the lippies inside so I just placed both inside my lipstick drawer together with my millions of Happy Skin lippies. (Haha, Exag!)
The swatches look a bit warmer but they definitely look lighter on the lips. I feel like these two shades look distinct on different people depending on how pigmented the lips are and if you’re acidic, like me. Some lipsticks I wear tend to oxidize thus making them pinker after they set.
I think that these two lippies apply very similar to the Revlon Matte Lip Balms but better! They are much pigmented, and they don’t tug the lips! They will definitely transfer when you wipe them out, but longer wearing than other creamy matte lip products. They do not have a strong scent or any scent at all, which is always a plus!
Too Cool is a classic nude. It kind of erases my natural lip color so I would probably have to wear this over a darker shade of lipstick or lip liner, or blended with Hot Stuff. I think it looks pinker on my lips because I am acidic. It can emphasize the lip lines if not blended well or if applied with several layers.
This shade won’t go well with minimal makeup unless I want to look anemic! Lol! I won’t give up on this lipstick yet because I don’t really have a nude shade like this on my collection yet. I will wear this lippie with a heavy eyeshadow some other time and I will show you how it fares.
Hot Stuff (oh my G!) is a Bordeaux red shade. It is not for the faint of heart. Haha! This shade brightens the complexion, and makes my face instantly put together. I love dark shades like this because it suits my medium complexion really well. It is not for everyday wear for some, but it can for me! *wink* I am kinda used to people staring at my coloring book face. I don’t really care, because I am happy! Right? Right! 😀
This set though is not for everyone and they are from the opposite sides of the color spectrum. I would love to see more shades of this creamy matte formula of Happy Skin. I love their original formula so much and I think they are worth every penny. Their lippies are great quality, and are comparable to higher end brands.
I would love to read your thoughts! 🙂

The lippy hot stuff look amazing on you! I have those two Summer Fling lips & crushing on you,they are very smoothly & so lightweight on my lips. ♥

I can relate with your term ‘coloring book face’! Hahaha! as long as we’re happy that’s fine 😀
I’m liking dark shades too lately but not on the vampy shades, reds most likely. I actually consider Happy Skin as high-end here in Philippines. Good thing they sell in sets like this.

I don’t have these yet, huhuhu. I’m eyeing more on Too Cool, though! I think I have way too many dark reds na (not that I don’t need any more, lol) =))
Pat
Hot Stuff looks great on you!

“Coloring Book Face”! — laughed so hard at this.
I wish Too Cool looked that pink on me. Pero sakin predominantly beige talaga sya.
Anyway, sana talaga maglabas pa sila ng madami pang matte colors. Tipong ganitong formula ng The Morning After or a hot pink shade <3
Jhem
I admire women who can wear dark shade of lippies confidently, Im kind of scared wearing that kind of shades even reds. Hehe. Im always on the safer one like mauves,nudes or pinks:) The hot stuff looks good on you, so fierce! even the too cool shade is so pretty, right amount of nude:) Hay nako. Kainggit naman:)

You may want to try at least one shade from the Happy Skin Lippies. I like the original formula too, and there are plenty of shades to try for every skin tone! 🙂
Dawn
Yey! Been waiting for someone to review these. 🙂 I’m such a scaredy cat to try them out first hand myself. I am so scared I’ll waste 1k+ on some things I won’t like.
Anyway, I think I will pass. You’re right. They are on the opposite sides of the spectrum. But thanks to your post I am finally able to decide if I should get them or not.
I’m actually on the hunt of a good medium pink lippie, so if you have any suggestions, hit me with them. 😀
Thanks!

I like the shades, The Morning After, or Under the Sheets! If you don’t have MAC Mehr, you may want to try it. I also like Wet N Wild In the Flesh. Hehe. 🙂

Sheeeet. Ang saya saya ko, ang ganda ganda niya sayo!
This is the oxidized Too Cool? It looks wearable ha! It really worked out for you. Love both. UGH.
Juvy
Balak ko, I’ll wear a tint underneath Too Cool para di ako magmukhang maysakit. Hehe. I hope that they will have more shades! 🙂
Maxine
Hi Juvy!
Wow, I wish I was acidic too because these look great on you! I’d probably look washed eat wearing the nude shade. *eek*!

This is beyond cool! 🙂 The box is tooooo cute! And the two shades really symbolizes for 2 moods. Hehe 🙂 Love the shades but “Too Cool” is a very pretty shade, I love it. Perfect for everyday use. 😀
